Dr. Ashish Jha on COVID-19: 'It probably was a lab leak'

Former Biden White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator, Dr. Ashish Jha, tells Dana Bash, "When I went into the White House, my view was this was almost surely a natural outbreak, maybe a lab leak. Based on information I learned and based on information I've seen, I have come to conclude that it is more likely to have been a lab leak."

The concept of "Maybe you should just sit this one out" never occurs to a narcissist deluded with a self-conception as an Expert Genius.

Do you hate Ken Jennings, the leftwing lunatic and former Jeopardy champ who the show made their host for some reason, making viewers like me permanently stop watching the show?

Well, you and transgenders have something in common. For some reason, trannies have decided that no one is allowed to read the New York Times any more. I guess maybe the NYT wrote one or two articles that suggested their mental illness wasn't the greatest so now you're not allowed to read it.

Anyway, Ken Jennings bragged about playing some NYT word-game and the trannies have been dragging him for days on BlueSky.

DHS has deported almost 1.5 million illegals in just the past year.

Andrew Kolvet, spokesman for Turning Point USA, spoke with DHS and confirmed that more than 1.4 million illegal aliens have been deported within the last 12 months. When it comes to the housing crisis, the bad job market, the crime wave in urban areas, and other economic and social problems, we find that illegal immigration has exacerbated or caused them all.

Kolvet posted on X on Sunday, "Just spoke to a source at DHS. A new report on deportations for the last 12 months just dropped which includes all deportation flights (commercial + government planes): Total alien forced departures of 1,461,529. The last 7 day average of forced removals: 4,291/day (believed to be a new all-time high)". He clarified, "This does not include self deportations."

There are up to 30 million illegal aliens in the United States, but it is difficult to get an exact number precisely because they didn't go through vetting to enter our country, and Democrats are not interested in being honest with statistics on the subject. Indeed, since somewhere between nine million and 20 million illegal aliens entered just under Joe Biden, it is possible that more than 30 million illegal aliens have entered the United States within the last half a century. The point is, we don't know for certain what the numbers are, but we do know they are massive. That is why mass deportations are so important.

🚨 1,645 Arrests. Every. Single. Day.

July just became the biggest month in ICE history, nearly 51,000 illegal aliens taken off the streets.

June set the record.

July shattered it.

Thousands of brand-new agents are now flooding American cities because President Trump actually funded the fight.

This is what real enforcement looks like.

No amnesty.
No catch-and-release.
No excuses.

Mass deportations are no longer a campaign promise.

They're happening. Keep going. Full throttle!

Cornyn and Tills have finally agreed to vote in favor of Todd Blanche as AG -- but they demanded Trump end his weaponization reimbursement fund for their vote.

Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., issued a joint statement on Monday, confirming their plans to support acting Attorney General Todd Blanche for confirmation to the post.

The senators had sought written confirmation from the Department of Justice that it would abandon an "anti-weaponization" fund that it had briefly established as part of a settlement with the IRS over the leak of President Donald Trump's tax returns. Blanche obliged.

Important announcement: I am upping my offer, $10 million dollars for a head-to-head basketball game between the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces and a boy's high school state title team of my choice. If the Aces beat my team, I will give them $10 million.

He's poison to the Democrat/Communist coalition:

"To talk about the larger Democratic Party, post the election in Michigan going forward, I am not going to be in the same party with Hasan Piker," Carville said on Fox News's "The Sunday Briefing," referring to the Michigan Senate race between Abdul El-Sayed and Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.).

"I have no intention of ever being in the same political party with that guy. Now, I think that a majority ---- overwhelming majority of Democrats agree with me, but this idea that we're going to seize the means of production and this ---- just go look at the DSA platform," he continued, referring to the Democratic Socialist of America (DSA).

When you declare it's racist (or -phobic) to question certain people, you breed people who believe, quite understandably, immune to any kind of accountability.

A Cambridge professor hailed as a diversity poster boy claimed that he had featured in the TV show Seven Up decades before he was born.

Prof Jason Arday said he had appeared in the series, which follows the lives of a group of people for decades from the age of seven.

The inaugural episode was broadcast in 1964. He was not born until 1985.

Prof Arday is at the centre of a row about academic plagiarism after The Telegraph revealed that he had been accused of copying parts of his PhD thesis from an earlier work by another student.

He has admitted a series of errors in his work but said the "positioning of me as this kind of liar and fantasist is totally unacceptable".

Now footage of a talk Prof Arday gave in October 2022 has re-emerged, revealing his claim that he appeared as a child on Seven Up.

He told the University of Bath's Race Equality Taskforce: "I was part of a programme, actually, which -- it doesn't really exist any more -- but it was called Seven Up at the time.

"And Seven Up is basically when they follow you over the duration of your life, so they follow you at [ages] 7, 14, 21. I was pulled out of the project when I was 14."

During the same talk, he also claimed: "I had just turned 18 when I learnt to read and write."

He probably didn't mean that earlier Seven Up documentary series, but a more recent one.

But that's also impossible:

The BBC also commissioned a spin-off series titled Up: Millennium Generation. This began in 2000, also featuring a group of seven-year-olds. At the time, Prof Arday would have been 15.

A BBC spokesman confirmed that Prof Arday was not involved with the Up: Millennium Generation films.
